Anyone running different offsets from front to rear

Just wondering if anyone is running different offsets on the front than in the back. I was wondering how the EVO will look with a slightly bigger lip in the back compared to the front. Anyone have any pics of this? Thanks

You wouldn't really want to stagger the setup unless you are doing some front bias. The rear stagger is mostly suited for RWD cars rather than AWD. However, the front stagger bias works VERY well for the Evolution. It turns it into a grip machine

+1

For track events or AutoX, I would run 18x9.5 +22 front and rear 18x9 +29 to +35 depending on application.

I don't think he was talking about staggered widths, I think he was talking about different offsets. You can ahve two wheels of the same width and tire size, but different offsets to give him the look he wants.

Why would you want wider "looking" wheels in the first place?
